Ultra Miami 2026 has announced its Phase 1 lineup, confirming a mix of returning headliners and new acts for the festival’s Bayfront Park edition next March. Taking place from March 27 to 29, the reveal offers the first look at next year’s artist schedule across the Main Stage, RESISTANCE, and Live Stage. The announcement also includes several back-to-back sets and international debuts, giving a clear picture of what to expect at the 2026 edition in Miami, with more names still to come in future phases.

Returning to Ultra after a multi-year absence, DJ Snake and Illenium are both confirmed for the 2026 edition. Their last performances at the festival were in 2022, making this their first appearances in four years. Major Lazer also rejoin the Ultra lineup as a group, marking their first group listing at Ultra Miami in several years. Their inclusion adds to the list of familiar names that longtime Ultra attendees will recognize from past lineups.

Among the standout listings in Phase 1 are several world debut performances and new collaborations. Amelie Lens and Sara Landry are set to perform back-to-back for the first time, with Ultra officially announcing it as a world debut. Their pairing brings together two of the most in-demand names in techno, each with strong identities and loyal followings. Wooli and Crankdat are also scheduled to play together under their joint alias Wankdat, which will mark their debut performance on an Ultra stage.

Deorro, Mike Posner, and MORTEN are confirmed to launch a new project titled Timeless, which will also make its world debut at Ultra. While further details about the project are still limited, its inclusion adds a new dimension to the festival’s growing Live Stage. Another exclusive to watch is Lasership by Levity, which will appear at Ultra as the only confirmed festival stop so far.

Returning favorites also include Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, John Summit, and Steve Aoki. Each of them has played across multiple stages over the years and continues to be a regular feature at Ultra Miami. Their names help anchor Phase 1, especially for fans looking for a balance between legacy acts and new collaborations.

One name that has not appeared in the Phase 1 reveal is Martin Garrix. Known for closing out previous editions of the festival and closely linked to Ultra’s main stage identity, Martin Garrix is currently absent from the 2026 lineup. While there is no confirmation yet, Ultra has previously added major acts in later phases, as seen when Skrillex was added to the 2025 lineup shortly before the festival began.

With Phase 1 now public, attention turns to what the next round of announcements might include. As in past years, future phases are expected to add more acts across all stages and potentially confirm additional collaborations. For now, Ultra Miami 2026 is off to a strong start.
